It takes a combination of natural talent, luck, determination, and plenty of outside support for someone to make it big in sports, entertainment, or business. But what if competing is all that matters to you, whether you are likely to succeed or not? This was the goal of Michael Eddie the Eagle Edwards, and that he reached that goal was an amazing achievement.‎ Bom in the U.K. in 1963, Michael was an enthusiastic downhill skier whose dream was to compete for Britain in world-class competitions. He would have liked to represent his country in the 1984 Winter Olympics, but there were a large number of downhill competitors, and Edwards didn't qualify. Seeing his chance elsewhere, he switched to ski jumping. Ski jumping didn't cost nearly as much, and there was almost no competition for a place on the Britain team.‎ But a number of hurdles （障碍）could have meant the end of Edwards' dream. He weighed more than most competitors, which put him at a disadvantage. He had no financial support for his training. Poor eyesight meant that he had to wear glasses under his goggles （护目镜）---not a good thing when they steamed up at high altitudes. But he couldn't let any of this discourage him. He saw himself as a true lover of the sport who simply wanted the chance to compete. Winning wasn't the point. Having the opportunity to try was all he cared about. And nothing could stop him from trying.‎ In the end, Edwards took 55th place in the 1987 World Championships. He then went on to the Calgary Olympics in 1988, where he finished last in both of his events. Many athletes would have been embarrassed by this result, but he is proud of his achievement to this day. His determination to fight against all the odds made him a global hero, and in 2016, the inspiring film Eddie the Eagle was made about his life.‎ ‎24. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?‎ A. To add some background information. B. To introduce the topic.‎ C. To expect an answer from readers. D. To uncover the secret of success.‎ ‎25. Why did Michael Edwards choose ski jumping?‎ A. There was little competition. B. The equipment was cheaper.‎ C. It took less skill. D. It was easy to win the championship.‎ ‎26. After the Calgary Olympics, Edwards .‎ A. switched to film making B. was embarrassed by his results C. felt he had reached his goal D. was glad it was over ‎27. What made Michael Edwards outstanding?‎ A. His enthusiasm for the sport. B. His ability to overcome physical disabilities.‎ C. His attitude towards the Olympics. D. His determination to win.‎ C High blood pressure, a common condition, rarely has noticeable symptoms, which make the condition difficult to identify, and that is why many people don't know they have it. The best way to find out whether you have the condition is to have your blood pressure（BP） checked with a monitor.‎ This is important because spotting any problems as early as possible reduces the risk of complications（并发症），which include cardiovascular disease such as stroke（中风），heart attack and heart failure, and kidney disease.‎ So how often should we check your blood pressure to find out whether you have the condition?‎ Dr Sarah Brewer, medical director of Healthspan, said if you haven91 had your blood pressure checked in the last year, make this a priority.‎ She explained, "If the reading is below 130/80 mmHg, then you go forward and have your blood pressure checked at least once every 5 years as it tends to increase slowly with age. If your BP is on the high side of normal （130/85mmHg to 139/89mmHg） or if you are aged 40 or over, it's best to have an annual check. If your blood pressure is 140/90mmHg or higher, see your doctor for advice on high blood pressure."‎ How often should you check your blood pressure if your BP is high?‎ If you have hypertension（高血压），check your blood pressure as often as your doctor tells you to, said Dr Brewer.‎ She added, "Guidelines suggest your doctor review you every 3 to 4 months until your blood pressure is well controlled. Once your blood pressure is stable on medication, you may be reviewed less often, every 6 months or annually. It's a good idea to check your blood pressure with a home monitor so you can ensure it isn't increasing or affected by changes in diet, lifestyle and stress?"‎ ‎28. Why are many people unaware they have high blood pressure based on the passage?‎ A. Because its symptoms are difficult to identify.‎ B. Because they don't consider high blood pressure risky.‎ C. Because the way to identify high blood pressure is not found yet.‎ D. Because it is difficult to get a monitor used to check blood pressure.‎ ‎29. Noticing high blood pressure in time is important because .‎ A. it is impossible to spot it as time goes by B. patients won't have to see a doctor regularly after that C. uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to serious health problems D. it will take doctors less money to treat patients with high BP by doing that ‎30. Which of the following will be supported by Dr Sarah Brewer?‎ A. A 41-year -old adult should have BP checked at least once a month.‎ B. BP will never change if you have it checked with a monitor.‎ C. It is good for you to consult a doctor if your BP is 140/90 mmHg or higher.‎ D. You don't have to worry about BP if your age is below 40.‎ ‎31. Which column in a magazine could this passage belong to?‎ A. Health. B. Style. C. Life. D. Sport.‎ D Thinking is something you choose to do as a fish chooses to live in water. To be human is to think. But thinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical（批判性）thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking processes. Otherwise, you might be controlled by the ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of education.‎ The word "critical" here has a special meaning. It does not mean taking one view against another view, as when someone criticizes another person for doing something wrong. The nature of critical thinking is thinking beyond the easily seen---beyond the pictures on TV, the untrue reports in the newspapers, and the faulty reasoning （错误的推理）.‎ Critical thinking is an attitude as much as an activity. If you are curious about life and desire to dig deeper into it, you are a critical thinker; if you find pleasure in deep thinking about different ideas, characters, and facts, you are a critical thinker.‎ Activities of the mind and higher-order reasoning are processes of deep and careful consideration. They take time, and do not go hand in hand with the fast speed in today's world, fast foods, instant coffee, and self-developing film. If you are among the people who believe that speed is a measure of intelligence, you may learn something new from a story about Albert Einstein. The first time Banish Hoffman, a scientist, was to discuss his work with Albert Einstein, Hoffman was too nervous to speak. But Einstein immediately put Hoffman at ease by saying, "Please go slowly, I don't understand things quickly.”‎ ‎32. Critical thinking is important to us because if we do not think critically, .‎ A. we might be controlled by other people's ideas B. we will understand the ideas of others naturally C. it will be hard for us to think naturally and fast D. we might be fooled by other people's ideas ‎33. If you are a critical thinker, you will .‎ A. criticize other people for their mistakes B. think deeply about different ideas C. take one view against another view D. trust the reports in the newspapers ‎34. In the last paragraph, "something new” suggests that .‎ A. the smarter you are, the faster you do things B. the faster you do things, the smarter you become C. speed can improve intelligence D. intelligence is not decided by speed ‎35. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Thinking Natural and Human B. Thinking and Critical Thinking C. Understanding Critical Thinking D. Thinking Fast Means Intelligence 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。‎ Article writing has been a way of conveying information through the web.
